Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the current pedagogical practices in relation to ICT at a university, particularly for its off-campus programmes. This study addresses the need to understand aspects of lecturers’ pedagogies and practices in relation to ICT and to review trends in the ways in which ICT is used and employed. In this single case study, three methods of gathering data were employed which were questionnaires on e-Learning (ICT) employment, observations made during the teaching and learning process, and individual interviews with the participants. The participants were 13 university lecturers teaching off-campus programmes at a public university in the northern part of Malaysia. The findings indicate that the participants acknowledged the potentials of having ICT in classroom. However, their pedagogical practices did not reflect their understanding of the potential of affordances of ICT. The findings reveal the complex relations between lecturers’ orientations concerning the conditions affecting technology use, and the lecturers’ views concerning their pedagogical practices.
